CIA was behind the chemical attack. Look at the footage, also they don't even know what chemical it was.

I'm saying there is a huge difference between a thought out plan vs just jumping off the handle before the dust has even settled. Temperament means a lot. Donnies administration just said they were wiping their hands with Syria and he goes an unleashes 60+ missiles on them?

No. The class has 96 Mark 41 VLS cells, but what they carry in those cells vary depending on mission.
There are two major variants of the Arleigh Burke class for all intents and purposes at the moment. There is those that implement the Aegis Combat System and there are those that implement a fork of it, known as the Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense System. They are different.
Those that implement the Aegis Combat System are typically armed with more Tomahawks and are used more in the land attack role. They also carry more ship-to-ship weapons, and with the SM-2 / SM-6 provide help their Cruiser provide air defense. But their focus in terms of air defense is aircraft, cruise missiles, helicopters, drones and anti-ship missiles.
A typical loadout of the ACS version is:
56 TLAMs (Tomahawk land attack missiles)
24 SM-2MR/SM-6 (air defense missiles)
24x4 Evolved Sea Sparrow Missiles (quad packed medium range air defensive missiles)
4 VL ARSOC (anti-Submarine Missiles)
Those that have the Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense system have a different radar and different equipment. They carry the larger SM-3 anti-ballistic missile. The SM-3 is not carried by Aegis Combat System ships. Currently about half the fleet has ABMD capability, but this arrived later. Right now the Navy builds every other ship with ABMD support. Why? Because it doesn't need a fleet full of ships carrying SM-3s, to lose the Tomahawk payload. The purpose of this variant is to extend the Aegis Combat System defensive layer against ballistic missiles.
A typical loadout of the ABMD variant is
30 TLAM
30 SM-6
16 SM-3
16x4 ESSM
4 VL ARSOC.
Since the US used the ABMD variant's TLAM, it would represent a substantial fraction, if not the entirety of their TLAM weapon load, as Kellhound stated.
If you want to consider something for the sake of contrast, consider the new Zumwalt Class DDG-1000 Destroyer. It has 80 Mark 57 VLS cells. But it doesn't impliment the Aegis Combat System or Aegis Ballistic Missile, and is compatible with neither. It's stealth role is designed for it to be close to short, and congruent with that, it'll carry a much larger number of Tomahawk missiles than your average Aegis Destroyer - perhaps as many as 60. But it'll only carry the SM-6s / SM-2s to defend itself, and not the whole fleet, so as few as 8.
Look at all the close up images and you can see 16 targets only hit and for fun lets say all 16 were double tapped so that 32 where did the other 27 go lmao. Oh btw by 10am this morning SU-22's were already flying in and out of the "DESTROYED" airbase lmao a 100 million dollar fireworks show is all you got.
Numerous sources from the pentagon said it was Tomahawk E's that were fired which is the latest and greatest.
ISI has only included a few areas of close-ups, not the entire area.
The base's ability to perform sustained significant operations is pretty much gone, a handful of sorties is nothing.

Yep. Sarin gas is colorless and odourless. IF reports are true and people saw mist, it was likely chlorine gas, which looks like this:
It also seems like reports that describe victims show that sarin was not involved. Sarin is a nerve agent. People die mainly of asphyxiation, partially or completely paralyzed. Vomiting, chemical burns, eye and lung damage - that is chlorine. So basically, as usual, US intelligence confused a military WMD with a substance that is used for industrial purposes and started shooting instead of asking questions. And before anyone asks - chlorine is not too problematic to acquire even in industrial quantities. Many water treatment plants have stockpiles. And sometimes it is used like this:

I wonder if anyone sees similarities and how this can possibly play out...BAGHDAD, Feb. 21 2007 — A truck bomb that combined explosives with chlorine gas blew up in southern Baghdad on Wednesday, and officials said it might represent a new and deadly tactic by insurgents against Iraqi civilians.
It was at least the third truck bomb in a month to employ chlorine, a greenish gas also used in World War I, which burns the skin and can be fatal after only a few concentrated breaths. The bomb killed at least two people and wounded 32 others, many of them sent to hospitals coughing and wheezing, police and medical officials said.
